Former Miss Anambra, Chidinma Okeke whose sex video recently leaked to
the public has opened up on how the video was filmed and why it was
released.

Chidinma, 20, was seen in a sex video with a lesbian partner in a video released few days before the expiration of her tenure.

The beauty queen had gone missing after the release of the video, prompting her father to raise an alarm.

In a recent chat with The Nation, Chidinma said the video was released by the organizers of the beauty pageant.

She also said those who were threatening her had stopped.

She said, “Early last year, the ABS advertised for the Miss Anambra beauty pageant. I heard of it and went to make enquiry.

“My roommate was also interested, but one of the organisers told me to
apply. I told them I was not interested but the man insisted that I
might win the competition. He also promised to give me the form for free
if I indicated interest, and he did when I agreed to contest.

“But one Jane told me that before a winner would be declared, there were
certain things to be done, including the (sex) video. I consented after
some persuasion from the organisers. I later went for the contest at
the Marble Arch Hotels in Awka, and I was declared winner with a Kia Rio
vehicle as star prize.

“When I went for my car after the contest, the organisers brought out a
contract form for me to sign, but I told them I wanted to contact my
lawyer to see it. I was not given the opportunity to do so.

“What they kept telling me was that if I insisted on not signing the
contract or wanted to contact my lawyer, they would release the video.

“At that point, I became uncomfortable and signed the contract to avoid
such embarrassment, and the car was released to me from where it was
packed within the premises of ABS.

“From that moment, I became a slave to them. On October 11, 2016, they
called me to come and make presentations inside the office of one the
organisers. After that, the man excused some people in that room and
showed me the video again.

“They told me to drop my car and removed my crown from me. I told them I
would take the car as stipulated in the contract. They insisted I
should pack it in the premises of (ABS).

“I told my uncle in Abuja about the situation. My uncle called them and
asked them to release my car to me. Instead, they forwarded the video to
him as part of the blackmail. That was what happened,” Chidinma said,
crying.
